So what antivirus do you use?

You might want to have a look at Microsoft Security Essentials. It's free, and built for 7.

Hmmm....i don't thing these is good. I need some antivirus to install and to work good!:shock:

Different strokes for different folks, but I have MSE on 5 PC's here (3 of wich are operated by teenagers), and so far I haven't had any issues. It is an installed scanner (not one of those internet based tools), if that makes any difference. It's Microsoft's replacement to Live OneCare.

Update - oops, didn't see the Macedonia thing, sorry.

I'm afraid my opinion of Symantec/Norton isn't very good. It always seemed to really eat up a lot of system resources, plus I like the fact that there are free alternatives (at least in the US)...

They both are good choices. I'd try AVG first since it's free. You can always buy Norton later if you don't like it.

Norton 2010 products are enough to change your mind.
